short grain is the best.biggest thing to do for success though is rinsing the sushi rice really, really well. you want the water to run clear to know the rice is ready to cook.

I use 1/4C white or rice vinegar, 1/4C sugar, 1tsp salt (as given at a sushi making class)...for a quantity of 2 C of uncooked rice...

probably the sweeter version is to "kiwi" tastes like most foreign food we get here. Thai, korean, chinese, they add more sugar to acomodate for our sweet teeth.

By the way i'd only use white vinegar if you were desperate, its a pretty pungent vinegar.

This is what I use but to 3 cups of uncooked rice. If you are using white vinegar you can heat it up in the microwave til the sugar has dissolved as this seems to take some of the strong flavour away.

This is the receipe I got with my sushi maker: To make 1 cup seasoning, place in a pot: 1 cup rice vinegar (you can find this in the asian section anywhere) 1 cup white sugar 2 teaspoons salt.Heat all ingrediants to dissolve but do not boil, cool, bottle and place in fridge, can be made ahead of time, seasoning will keep for several months in fridge.
note.for every cup of rice use 1/4 cup (6o mls) fo sushi rice seasoning...
